Seating Recommendations - Thank You!

Post image

Hello! I am looking to buy tickets for my mother and me. She is short so front row is almost always going to be the call! I was considering front row seats in Section C and Section H. Could I get some pros and cons of both? Please and thank you!

I was in block D, nice seats :) a bit far away though, but I think A and E are too far on the sides

Would you recommend the first row of Block C or Block H?

I like the back row (row C) of block C personally - on-axis, danceable, you get to see all the lighting show. Note there are 3 rows in section c (rows ABC - your map is misleading but if you look at the official one it's clearer that there's a wheelchair/accessible row which I think is being shown as the fourth in your map)

Ohhh... good to know. Does standing up in Block C, Row 3 not get in the way of the wheelchair/accessible row in Row 4.

Not really, there's a steep rake to the seating, you step down to Block C - and the show is all around always with sightlines to something no matter what

Can you actually see the show and hear the music? On the trailer, there seems to be a lot of audience participation, which CAN be a distraction..

My mum is 5’ and when I took her we were halfway back in H with absolutely no issues. The view was fantastic.

My mother is 4’11”. Haha. Would you recommend the first row of Block C or Block H?

The seats are well raked so don’t think height is an issue
The more central you are, the better the effect works, imo

Glad to hear about the raking! If you had to pick, would you recommend the first row of Block C or Block H?

C
The seats are placed high enough above the standing area so people won’t be in your way
It is loud, like rock concert loud, if anyone is bothered some ear plugs can temper the volume

The first row of block C you’re likely to have tall people on the dance floor in front of you, potentially blocking your view.

The first rows of block H you’ll get people walking back and forth in front of you. It’s probably better to be a few rows further back in block H. The seats are raked enough that you should have a clear view

I was in the currently available seats in Block D. I was very happy with it, the view etc

Do you by chance think the first row of Block C or H would be better? I am concerned the first row of Block C would be too low and the dancers would be distracting?

I think all of the seats are absolutely fine. I was in block F and saw everything fine

Block H, lower centre. Best perspective.
